Is it unsafe to use compost for vegetable plants if rats have been in it ?

A few months ago I discovered evidence of rats in my compost bin so I removed all the food scraps and resolved to just put paper and garden waste in there.

Today I have been repotting seedlings of bell peppers and tomatoes and totally forgot that the compost may be contaminated. I used the compost from the compost bin.

Have I totally ruined my chances of eating whatever fruit and veg I grow in this stuff?
